It was Sunday Funday for Jennifer Lopez, Matt Damon and his wife, Luciana Damon!

The trio were photographed during a lunch outing in New York City on April 14, outside Sadelle's in Manhattan's SoHo neighborhood.

Lopez, 54, showed off her taut abs in a cropped dark-green top with long sleeves and a high neck, finishing the look in wide-leg jeans and platform shoes and carrying a green handbag.

Damon, 53, kept it similarly casual in a black polo, khakis and white sneakers as he held an umbrella for himself and his wife, the latter of whom opted for an all-white look.

Ben Affleck, Lopez's husband and Damon's longtime best friend, was not pictured.

While it was unclear whether Affleck, 51, was along for the Sunday outing in N.Y.C., Damon has long been supportive of his pal's relationship with Lopez.

After news broke that the couple had rekindled their romance, the Oppenheimer star told Extra in July 2021 that he was "just so happy" for Affleck.

"He's the best. He deserves every happiness in the world," Damon continued. "I'm glad for both of them."

The actor went on to say the following month on The Carlos Watson Show, of Affleck and Lopez's relationship, "Oh man, no one's pulling harder than I am."

"They're both great. I just want for their happiness," Damon said, before adding, "They seem pretty happy right now."

Lopez and Affleck were first engaged by the end of 2002, after they met filming the 2003 movie Gigli. The pair split in January 2004, before reuniting in 2021 and tying the knot the following year.

In a Variety video interview published this past February, Lopez recalled meeting her now-husband for the first time during a Gigli read-through.

"I saw him and we just talked for like a minute and then I sat down and we did the read-through," said the actress and singer. "I don't remember a whole bunch more about it, but I remember being on the set with him every day and loving it."

When asked if she and Affleck would ever make another movie together, Lopez didn't rule it out, replying, "Maybe, in the right thing."

"I mean, we love working together and being together, so maybe," she added.
